EKEWITH  we  submit  illustrations  of  the  newest  and  best  selling  Cases  and  Shelving  from  Modern  and  IIp-to-Date 
Groceries.  It  is  our  intention  to  sustain  our  past  reputation  for  producing  the  best  Goods  at  the  Lowest  Prices  con¬ 
sistent  with  Good  Workmanship.  Everything  in  the  Fixture  line  can  be  obtained  from  us  in  conjunction  with  our 
special  Bin  work.  By  this  we  mean  that  our  Specialty  covers  the  Grocery,  but  should  you  be  engaged  in  the  general 
merchandise  business,  we  will  be  glad  to  quote  you  prices  on  complete  outfits  for  your  various  departments.  Our  only 
object  in  deviating  from  our  special  line  is  in  order  to  guarantee  to  the  customer  a  uniform  color  and  finish  throughout  the 
entire  store. 

Our  main  factory  is  situated  in  the  Eastern  lumber  belt,  and  all  of  our  oak  is  cut  and  air  dried  for  two  years  before  going 
into  the  kilns,  thus  insuring  a  certain  uniformity  in  the  seasoning  of  the  wood.  The  exterior  portion  of  all  case  and  counter  work 
and  shelving  is  made  of  hard  wood,  and  the  interior  of  seasoned  white  wood,  thus  elminating  all  taste  and  odors,  and  presenting 
to  the  customer  a  bin  capable  of  holding,  without  contamination,  articles  of  merchandise  that  would  otherwise  be  susceptible  to 
odorus  woods.  All  the  designs  are  Modern  in  every  way,  and  thoroughly  Practical  for  All  Uses. 

We  make  it  a  point  never  to  allow  goods  to  go  from  any  of  the  factories  before  being  carefully  examined  and  tested.  We 
also  make  it  a  point  in  designing  fixtures  for  a  store  to  utilize  all  the  space  to  good  advantage  without  orercroicding,  and  at  the 
same  time  converting  all  of  the  space  in  the  fixtures  to  practical  use. 

We  believe  that  a  satisfied  customer  is  our  best  advertisement,  and  for  that  reason  we  have  added  a  list  of  names  in  the  rear 
of  this  book,  and  we  gladly  refer  you  to  any  one  of  these  parties  now  using  our  bins. 

Bead  carefully  the  following  paragrai^h  before  ordering. 


OF  IMPORTANCE  TO  PROSPECTIVE  CUSTOMERS. 


READ  CAREFULLY. 


All  special  sized  or  ordered  goods  cannot  be  canceled  after  they  are  put  in  work. 

Positively  no  cash  allowance  made  for  goods  broken  in  transit  or  otherwise.  Transportation  Company’s  receipt  in  good 
order  constitutes  delivery,  and  we  will  not  hold  ourselves  accountable  for  breakage  or  damage  after  that.  Redress  must  be 
secured  from  the  Railroad  Company.  We,  of  course,  at  all  times  will  lend  our  assistance  in  securing  payment  of  claims.  Over¬ 
charged  freight  bills  must  be  settled  direct  with  Transportation  Company. 

Full  shipping  directions  should  accompany  order,  otherwise  we  will  use  our  best  judgment. 

All  orders  will  be  filled  in  Oak,  unless  otherwise  specified.  When  ordering,  please  do  so  by  number,  and  be  as  explicit  as 
possible.  All  goods  are  carefully  crated  and  delivered  F.  O.  B.  cars  at  factory. 

Terms  are  strictly  cash.  Prospective  customers,  whose  credit  has  not  been  established  with  us,  will  be  required  to  furnish 
satisfactory  reference  or  part  cash  with  order. 


^HE  accompanying  cut  is  a 
*  “cross  section”  of  one  of 
our  bins,  and  shows  the  construc¬ 
tion  and  detail  work  thereon.  By 
this  cut  it  will  be  seen  that  the 
bin  is  equally  counterbalanced,  the 
weight  of  the  goods  keeping  the 
bin  closed  and  air-tight,  and  when 
swung  open  remains  in  a  station¬ 
ary  position,  making  the  goods 
easy  of  access.  The  display  at  the 
front  is  kept  in  place  by  two  metal 
slides  which  hold  the  exposition  in 
a  permanent  position,  and  gives 
the  bin  the  api^earance  of  being 
full  at  all  times,  no  matter  how 
little  it  contains. 


bin  was  patented  on  Novem¬ 
ber  15,  1898,  and  is  covered  by 
Letters  Patent  No.  614,279,  issued 
by  the  United  States.  Any  in¬ 
fringements  by  MANUEACTUR- 
EES  or  USEES  will  be  prosecuted 
to  the  full  extent  of  the  law,  as  the 
U.  S.  Circuit  Court  has  sustained 
this  patent  (see  opinion  and  decree 
issued  by  Judge  Archbald,  sitting 
in  his  Honorable  Court  in  the  East¬ 
ern  District  of  the  State  of  Penn¬ 
sylvania,  for  the  U.  S.  Circuit 
Court).

A  casual  glance  at  the  cut  shows  a  waste  of  room  back  of 
bins,  but  this  is  not  so.  We  make  case  with  18  inch  top  in  some 
instances,  where  it  joins  section  of  No.  6,  and  it  is  necessary  to 
make  it  18  inches  wide  to  conform  with  width  of  other  case. 
The  space  in  the  rear  of  the  bins,  however,  may  be  used  for 
storage  of  spices  in  the  original  package.  When  9  inches  only 
is  required,  bins  can  be  nicely  placed  over  chimney  breast  or  any

^HE  above  illustration  is  submitted  for  the  purpose  of  conveying  to  prospective  customers  the  idea  of  how  a  Wall  Case  looks

*  chimney  breast,  and  Section  7  over  the  breast.  It  is  presumed  that  this  breast  or  projection  into  the  room  is  9  inches  deep, 
and  the  wall  case  18  inches  on  each  side  of  the  breast  and  9  inches  over  the  breast,  which  is  all  that  we  require  for  spice  nest.  Of 
course,  this  combination  of  casing  could  be  made  to  stand  along  the  wall  where  no  chimney  breast  extends  into  the  room  ;  but  in 
order  to  economize  space,  the  spice  nest  is  placed  in  this  position ;  it  can  also  be  placed  at  either  end  of  a  case. 

The  drawing  also  shows  two  end  views,  the  one  on  the  left  being  sectional,  and  the  one  on  the  right  full  paneled  end.  In  this 
case  the  sections  of  No.  6  on  each  side  of  the  breast  are  8  feet  long  and  the  spice  section  4  feet  long,  making  the  total  length 
20  feet. 

Of  course,  these  are  made  in  all  lengths  and  all  sizes.  See  pages  5  and  G  for  further  description.

is  the  great  Walker  Bin 
time.  Your  customers  are 
cleaning  and  furnishing  their 
houses.  Why  don’t  you  make  a 
little  palace  out  of  your  store  with 
Walker  Bins  ?  They  display  your 
goods  like  a  food  show,  and  they 
sell  ’em,  too.

^HIS  Catalogue  shows  some  of 
the  stores  fitted  up  with  Walker 
Patent  Bins.  This  will  give  you  a 
better  idea  of  what  they  will  do  for 
a  store  than  any  amount  of  descrip¬ 
tion.  But  you  can’t  tell  even  from 
pictures  what  an  enlivening  effect 
these  bins,  by  displaying  goods,  are 
going  to  have  on  your  business.

A  HANDSOME  store  is  not  only  a 
pride  and  pleasure  to  its  owner ; 
bnt  it  brings  business.  When  you 
are  buying  eatables,  if  everything 
looks  clean  and  attractive  it  offers 
an  inducement  to  buy.  The  first 
step  towards  keeping  your  stock 
clean  and  displaying  it  invitingly 
is  to  equip  your  store  with  Walker 
Patent  Pivoted  Bins.  They  are  so 
convenient ;  they  save  much  valu¬ 
able  time,  too.

\Y /HEN  you  patronize  a  restau- 
rant,  if  everything  looks 
elean,  it  proves  appetizing  and  you 
go  there  again.  The  same  thing 
applies  to  a  grocery  store.  You  go 
there  to  buy  eatables  ;  neatness  and 
cleanliness  not  only  induce  people 
to  buy,  but  they  induce  them  to 
buy  more  and  to  come  again.  The 
money  you  put  in  handsome,  at¬ 
tractive  fixtures  is  a  Paying  Invest¬ 
ment,  and  you  Always  get  it  back 
through  increased  patronage.  The 
Convenience  also  saves  time,  and 
time  is  money  to  the  busy  meix'hant.

^HERE  are  other  store  bins  on 
*  the  market,  but  none  like 
Walker’s.  Walker’s  Bins  stand 
alone — in  looks  and  in  convenient 
mechanism.  They  grace  some  of 
the  finest  grocery  stores  in  the 
United  States.  Don’t  take  a  weak, 
rickety  imitation  of  Walker  Bins 
unless  you  want  your  store  to  be  a 
caricature  of  what  it  might  be.

'^HE  best  grocery  stores  in  the 
*  country  are  being  gradually 
fitted  with  Walker  Bins. 

Why  ?  Because  it  is  now  thought 
good  business  to  make  a  store  as 
handsomely  attractive  as  it  can  be 
made,  and  Walker  Bins  do  that 
superlatively. 

Immense  store  improvement  for 
very  little  expense.

IT’S  a  pleasure  to  sell  goods  in  a 
*  store  handsomely  fitted  with 
Walker  Bins  ;  but  what’s  more  im¬ 
portant,  it’s  a  pleasure  to  buy  goods 
in  it. 

That’s  why  Walker  Bins  pay  as 
an  investment.  They  advertise  the 
store  and  draw  trade,  for  there  is  no 
business-bringing  magnet  ^equal 
to  a  handsome  store.

cleanliness  on  the  floor,  everything 
being  kept  away  from  dust,  dirt 
and  contamination,  and  preserv¬ 
ing  a  neat  and  clean  appearance 
throughout.  While  the  store  is 
very  large,  the  expenses  for  fur¬

so  great.

their  cost  in  increased  sales.

Come  grocers  have  an  idea  that 
Walker  Bins  cost  a  great  deal 
more  than  they  do.  They’re  sur¬ 
prisingly  moderate-priced.  You 
don’t  have  to  fit  up  your  whole 
store  with  them  at  once,  start 
small,  hut  start,  for  Walker  Bins 
will  give  you  a  new  store  and  a  new 
business.

\WALKEE  BINS  so  change  the 
appearance  of  a  store  and 
stock  that  everything  tempts  the 
appetite.  Everything  is  in  sight, 
too,  under  glass,  protected  from 
dust,  insects  and  tasters.  Let  peo¬ 
ple  see  inviting  eatables,  and  they 
will  buy  lots  more  than  they  will  if 
they  have  to  ask  for  things  they 
don’t  see. 

It  doesn’t  take  long  for  the  in¬ 
crease  in  your  sales  to  pay  for  the 
expense  of  having  your  store  fitted 
up  by  us.

advantage,  to  keep  it  clean,  to  pre¬

facilitate  quick  handling.  They

of  time  and  waste  and  increased 
patronage.

so  attractive  it’s  bound  to  bring  the 
people  in.  Your  stock  looks  so 
clean  and  inviting,  they  are  bound 
to  buy.  They  keep  everything  so 
fresh  and  sweet,  they  are  bound  to 
come  back  and  buy  again.  It  may 
mean  a  little  expense  at  first,  but 
you  soon  get  your  money  back ; 
your  surroundings  prove  an  incen¬ 
tive  to  you  and  your  clerks  to  keep 
your  store  a  perpetual  temptation 
to  the  ladies  to  buy.

transient  customer  who  calls  for  a

Put  in  Walker  Bins.  They  enable 
you  to  show  your  entire  stock ;  to 
show  it  temptingly,  and  you  haven’t 
an  idea  how  quickly  the  amount 
they  cost  you  will  come  back  in 
increased  sales.

Their  Increased  sales  of  goods  owing  to  the  constant  and  attrac¬ 
tive  display; 

Their  protection  of  contents  from  flies,  dust  and  dampness; 

Their  profitable  utilization  of  otherwise  useless  space,  and 

Their  beauty  as  store  fixtures. 

The  new,  adjustable  clips  for  holding  the  display -backs  in  place 
are  such  an  improvement  on  the  original  device  that  they  deserve  to 
be  called  a  means  of  grace  in  saving  time,  trouble,  broken  glass  and 
profanity. 


Very  truly  yours.
